She extended her hand and said, “Givethe bowl. | want to eat by myself.” n Seeing her insistence, Elliot handed her the bowl, gently advising, “Be careful not to burn yourself.” Sheena nodded.
As she took the bowl, she immediately placed it on the bedside table and grabbed Elliot's hand, pulling up his sleeve to examine the wrist that triggered an obvious reaction just a moment ago.
“Nana!” Elliot withdrew his hand a bit too late, and Sheena had already seen the injured and swollen skin on his wrist.
She stared at him in disbelief, anger brewing in her chest.
“How did you get hurt like this? Even when you make mistakes, I've never had the heart to beat you this badly. Who did this to you?” Elliot lowered his gaze, his eyes avoiding hers as he pulled his sleeve down guiltily.

It happened while | was cooking. | was accidentally burned by the edge of the pot, and | didn’t rinse it with cold water in tafterward. | didn’t expect it to be badly inflamed, but I've already applied medicine, so there’s no need to worry.” How could she not worry?

“| care about you. Letsee.” Elliot withdrew his hand, avoiding her touch.
Seeing his resistance, Sheena seized the opportunity while he was distracted and decisively rushed forward, forcibly rolling up his sleeve.
A portion of his muscular arm was revealed, marred with numerous scars.

“How did you get hurt so badly? Who did this to you? Tell me!” Unable to hide it any longer, Elliot sighed in resignation. “Nana, calm down.” “How can | calm down when you suddenly get injured like this? Who did this?” Elliot remained silent.

If just a portion of his right arm was injured so badly, what about the rest of his body? How severe were those injuries? She sat up, grabbed Elliot's suit jacket, and began pulling at it.
“Letsee if you have any other injuries.” “Nana...” Elliot had not slept well for three days straight.
